i"will be held a week from next j eration for two lots located in

I postponement was caused by j lution agre'eu to feed,clothe and

g*et a sufficient supply of copper wire in time to complete the

SEND FOR YEAR BOOK
The 1911 Year Book, which
chronicles the work of theUnited
States Department of Agriculture each year, has just been
issued. So many of the articles
in this book are of practical
interest to the farmer that it
should be secured by every person interested in agriculture.
Aside from the report of Secretary Wilson which explains
the work of investigation conducted by the department, there
are 31 stories dealing with present-day problems of special importance. It is a book 732 pages
bound in cloth, and contains 07
full page half tone illustrations.
This book may be obtained by
writing to your congressman or to
either of your United States senators, who are given a number
of them for distribution. If ever
a book was worth a two-cent
stamp it is the 1911 Year Book.-
Ray P- Speer. Minn. Agricultural College.
The committee on Indian affairs of the congressional house
of representatives will investigate conditions at Mille Lacs
this fall in an attempt to devise
some plan for a satisfactory
settlement of the Indian problem.
The plan that the committee
seems to think most feasible is
the purchase of a tract of land
out at some point on the lake,
upon which the government will
move all the Indians remaining
here and there provide them
with suitable homes and give
them a chance to support themselves by work. This scheme
may be all right, but we believe
that it will meet with considerable opposition on the part of
the settlers in the neighborhood
of the place the committee may
select fortius reservation.

Uncle Ezra Says
"It don't take more'n a gill uv effort to
frit folks into a peck of trouble*' and a
little neglect of Constipation, biliousness, indigestion or other liver derangement will do the same.. If ailing,
take Dr. King's New Life Pills for
quick results. Easy, safe, sure, and
only 25 cents at E. L. Kaliher.
There is as yet very little
l!iresiling* done this season.
With the unusually heavy
straw and the limited number of machines in the field,
some of the fa ri n ers may have
to have the threshing done in
the spring.
Many Hriven From Home
Every year, in many parts of the
country, thousands are driven from
their homes by coughs and lung diseases. Friends and business are left
behind for other climates, but this is
costly and not always sure. A better
way—the way of multitudes—is to use
Dr. King's New Discovery and cure
yourself at home. Sta}' right there
with your friends, and take this safe
medicine. Throat and lung troubles
find quick relief and health returns.
Its help in coughs, colds, grip, croup,
whooping-cough and sore lungs make
it a positive blessing. SOs and $1.00.
Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by E.
L. Kaliher.

' Buckman, to Jacob Poss, of
.Barney, N. D.
ing the rest of his life, and to
provide a decent burial for him
when he passes away.
This action, while somewhat
unusual, was necessited by the
refusal of the ag*ed man's son to
care for him. Lying ill and
practicallv on his death bed,
Hjelm offered the city the real
estate he owned if he were only
assured of proper care and attention during his remaining
days.
An attendant has been given
the man and all the proper food,
clothing" and fuel furnished-
Hjelm is over 70 years of age
and has been ill for some time,
his case having been under consideration by the city officials
for several months.
The lots which the city has
taken in exchange for their guar-
antee are valued at approximately $800.
The records show that this is
not the Iirst time that the city
of .St. Cloud has officiated in the
capacity of an insurance company. Years ago a lot on First
avenue, now considered quite
valuable, was transferred to the
municipality by Taylor Gill and
his wife, an aged couple who
were provided for by the officers
for over a year and a half. The
lot was sold after their death
and is now the site of a handsome residence.

The Men Who Succeed
as heads of larg-e enterprises are men
of groat energy. Success, today, demands health. To ail is to fail. It's
utter folly for a man to endure a weak,
run-down, half alive condition when
Electric Hitters will put him right on
his feet in short order. "Four bottles
did me more real good than any other
medicine I ever took," writes Chas.
B. Allen, Sylvania, Ga. "Afteryears
of suffering with rheumatism, liver
trouble, stomach disorders and deranged kidneys, I am again, thanks
to Electric Bitters, sound and well."

Saving Them for Her Funeral.
The wife of a prominent southern
statesman tells a story of her ancient
colored cook, who took a liking to
every article of apparel in her mistress' wardrobe. It was "please give
me this" and "please give me that,"
until the lady took a trip to St. Louis
and laid In a generous supply of hosiery and underwear and outer garments for the old mammy. The gifts
were received with gratitude, but
presently the cook was at her old
tricks, asking for stockings, aprons
and wrappers. "What did you do
with all those things I brought you
from St. Louis?" demanded her employer.
"Why, missle," answered the woman, "I couldn't use them things. Not
for nothing. I am saving them all to
be buried In."

years, when it was changed to a
fortnightly service. In 168

BOARD OF HEALTH TALK

headache, and does it often,
have his eyes tested as soon as
possible. The eyes may be an-
constant strain which will
injure them early. So, too, if

merely handicapped by lack of
or medical attention.

Saving Them for Her Funeral.
The wife of a prominent southern
statesman tells a story of her ancient
colored cook, who took a liking to
every article of apparel in her mistress' wardrobe. It was "please give
me this" and "please give me that,"
until the lady took a trip to St. Louis
and laid In a generous supply of hosiery and underwear and outer garments for the old mammy. The gifts
were received with gratitude, but
presently the cook was at her old
tricks, asking for stockings, aprons
and wrappers. "What did you do
with all those things I brought you
from St. Louis?" demanded her employer.
"Why, missle," answered the woman, "I couldn't use them things. Not
for nothing. I am saving them all to
be buried In."

York and Boston was established in L670. The letters were
carried by a messenger, who
was directed to "go and return
as often as once a month." This
monthly service seems to have
been sufficient for some thirty
years, when it was changed to a
fortnightly service. In 168
well-organized system of post-
offices was established in Pennsylvania, and in other localities.
